Coins for Conservation

You can also donate through our Coins for Conservation program and by purchasing items with the Conservation Today logo at the North Star Trading Post®.

The Toledo Zoo and Franklin Park Mall are working together to raise funds for endangered species of animals. One hundred percent of the proceeds from coins collected at the Franklin Park Mall fountain help fund the Zoo’s conservation program. Look for the fountain in front of Dillard’s.

You’ll find more fun Coins for Conservation displays at the Toledo Zoo. If you like piggy banks, you’ll go wild when you see our warthog coin collector. Look for fun coin collectors in Nature’s Neighborhood and elsewhere all over the Toledo Zoo—thank you for your contributions!
